Of course, Good Idea.
This is what we have been saying for long.
Current regime determined to split the Island according to the wishes of western Governments and NGO’s (who were instrumental in toppling the progressive MR-Pohottuwa Regime) and reinstatement of the Green Regime).
So, current regime and its Speaker have created one Opposition Leader for the South and one Opposition Leader for the North.
Soon there will be one PM for the South and one PM for the North.
Separate State achieved, my dear pals!
Good on you, Veeraya.
